CPA’s article on the Results of Starving the IRS of Funds Hits the Nail on the Head
Harry, you again are too soft. Cutting the IRS is like cutting off your nose to spite your face. It is the height of stupidity. By cutting the IRS by $1 billion since 2011, the Congress and the President have increased the deficit and the US debt by at least $21 billion to $54 billion over that time period. By not adding resources to drive the $450 billion annual tax gap down and to curtail the tax refund fraud that is occurring adds tens of billions to that deficit and debt. This behavior by the Congress and the President borders on the criminal neglect of the finances of the United States. We need a major change in their collective judgment and action or changes in our elected leaders.
